DaRon Bland wasn’t ranked by any recruiting service. He went to Sacramento State. He’s the best CB in the NFL this season and just set the record for Pick 6’s.
Sauce Gardner was ranked the 1605 player in the 2019 class by 247 composite. The 154 CB. So he went to Cincinnati. He’s now a top 2-3 CB in the NFL.
Aqib Talib was a 2* recruit and the 979th overall player by 247 composite. 74th CB. So he went with his best offer…lowly Kansas. Likely future HOFer.
Derrelle Revis was the 460th overall recruit, 37th CB, and a 3*. He went to homestate Pitt, his best offer.
So obviously, Sensabaugh can’t possibly be any good because his best offers are Tennessee, NC State, Missouri, and Vanderbilt, and he’s a 3* recruit.
Good thing Tennessee didn’t steal those recruits from Sacramento State, Cincinnati, Kansas, and Pitt. Because those are NOT the level of schools we’re supposed to recruit against.
And before you say, “exceptions don’t disprove the rule,” spare me. I’m not saying they’re the rule. Because there is no “rule.” Which is patently obvious by the fact that these players exist.
